Sixth Grave on the Edge (Charley Davidson)
Sometimes I wrestle my demons. Sometimes we just snuggle.—Bumper Sticker
Most girls might think twice before getting engaged to someone like Reyes Farrow—but Charley Davidson is not most girls. She's a paranormal private eye and grim reaper-in-training who's known to be a bit of a hell-raiser, especially after a few shots of caffeine. Her beloved Reyes may be the only begotten son of evil, but he's dark and sultry and deeply sexy and everything Charley could hope for. Really. But when the FBI file on Reyes' childhood happens to land into her lap, she can't help herself: She opens it...and then the real fun begins. First, Charley finds a naked corpse riding shotgun in her car. Then, a man loses his soul in a card game. Throw in a Deaf boy who sees dead people, a woman running from mobsters, and a very suspicious Reyes, and things can't get any worse for Charley. Unless, of course, the Twelve Beasts of Hell are unleashed…
Sixth Grave on the Edge is the sixth Charley Davidson novel from bestselling author Darynda Jones

I particularly enjoy the way she plays with other possible meanings of words, both on purpose and by accident (or by pretend accident!)
My only complaint about this whole series, and the reason for withholding the fifth star, is that I kind of dread hearing about how "perfect" Reyes's body is. I enjoy his personality and the way he interacts with Charley and others. But his role as sex god (or is that sex demon)? BOOO-RING. Why do we need to hear the graphic details of Reyes and Charley having sex? It's not as though the book is likely to attract readers who haven't experienced it (and/or read about it) a gazillion times already, so those parts weigh down what is otherwise such a funny and original story -- at least for this reader!
(I guess that's a downside to listening to these books rather than reading them -- you can't skip the graphic parts while listening!)
